intro:
I feel so bad I've got a worried mind
I'm so lonesome all the time
Since I left my baby behind on Blue Bayou
bridge:
Saving nickels, saving dimes, working 'till the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times on Blue Bayou
chorus:
I'm going back some day come with me to Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine and the world is mine on Blue Bayou
with those fishing boats with their sails afloat,
If I could only see
That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes, how happy I'd be
Gonna see my baby again
Gonna be with some of my friends
Maybe I'll be better again on Blue Bayou
(bridge)
(chorus)
i wanna be back with me lady, back with me one
back with me woman now back with me love
oh hold her so close, suffocate her anything she want I'll cater
and i promise to never leave her side,
while she vows to be my wife
that's why i can't wait to get back to my baby ..
I'm going back some day come with me to Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine and the world is mine on Blue Bayou
with those fishing boats with their sails afloat,
If I could only see
That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes, how happy I'd be
